I'd say while interesting, it really didn't explore in great depth any long term effects of radioactive accumulation in animals with relatively short lifespans such as birds, wolfs and deer, although it did highlight a couple of field sample readings of radioactivity in skeletal remains of moose and fish. There was a short reveal of a mouse species with abnormalities in the offspring.
While the 'healthy populations' of large raptors is encouraging, they didn't seem to do anything other than field observations, no tissue studies for instance.
I'd like to see more detailed studies done, specific tissue sampling of known long duration isotopes in hard and soft tissue, and rates of abnormalities/mutations in offspring, especially in established populations within the 'zone'. There are so many opportunities for detailed study ...
